The present disclosure discloses a high-strength and high-thermal conductivity new material composite brake drum and a preparation method thereof. The composite brake drum is composed of an outer layer of high-strength ductile iron and an inner layer of high-thermal conductivity gray cast iron, which are integrated by centrifugal compound casting. The outer layer of the composite brake drum is firstly poured on the production line of iron particle-filled coated sand shells. Due to the fast solidification and cooling of the iron particle-filled coated sand shells, the castings have the characteristics of fine and dense organization structures to ensure the high strength and high toughness of the ductile iron of the outer layer. On this basis, the inner gray cast iron is poured under centrifugal casting conditions, in which a good metallurgical bond between the inner and outer layers is achieved by controlling the centrifugal casting process.

In a method for coating a brake lining carrier plate with an adhesive composition that is to be dried, the lining carrier plate is inductively heated to the desired drying temperature before the adhesive is applied.

The invention relates to a method for applying sand to the inner radius of drum brake linings comprising the following steps: a) rolling a UV-curing adhesive onto the inner radius of a drum brake lining, b) applying a frictional grain, such as zircon sand, to the adhesive layer, c) removing the frictional grain not retained by the adhesive from the lining surface, and d) curing the coating by means of UV radiation.
